playing rush last night as going for a medal I've never got before.that mode is shite - just becomes a gas, smoke and fire grenade fest, and with smaller teams just totally dependant on one player being good with a mortar or tank to just get the bomb planted. I have 4 more 'plant the bombs' to get, and its drilling my k/d

This ain't COD - K/D ratio shouldn't come into it. Just play the objectives people!

I do, its just it becomes a 'everyone lobs grenades in' spamfest. I favour 4 smoke rifle grenades then 2 smoke normal grenades, and hoping I get blind lucky, have managed a couple of bomb plants and more diffuses that way. just isn't very much fun as ops.

the k/d comment was just to illustrate I've been dying a lot, in smoke or gas, from somebody who nblind fired a grenade in.

Incendiaries work well on rush if you can get them directly on the objective, either attacking or defending. With gas grenades enemies just put on their mask, but there's no counter to the incendiary grenades bar not standing on them. When attacking, use the rifle smokes to obscure everything and get to the objective and arm it, then drop an incendiary there as you run away (presuming you're under pressure). Baddies will just blindly run at it trying to defuse and either kill themselves or run away when they catch fire.On defence just flame the thing if you think they're getting close to it. Tripwires work too, but they're usually cleaned out by the grenades.

It is such a grenade spamfest, though. Was my favourite mode in BF4, this smaller version is a bit shit. The fun is in operations now.

I know its a pointless exercise, but I'm really going to push getting to rank 140 before the next BF comes out. I don't even know why ha, every time I get killed by a 140 player I instantly think "that loser probably has no life" etc.

It's fairly doable with squad XP boosts and we seem to also have 2xp every weekend from what I can see, really speeds things up.

I'm 129 at the moment and no way do I think I'll hit 140 by the time the new BF comes out.

I dunno, 4/5 months til it's released probably, say you get a few hours in every weekend, both Saturday and Sunday to take advantage of the Double XP...i think it's doable. I just hit 130 so we're fairly similar in terms of where we are.

Edit: just checked the progression points needed for each level, its not exponential, so 500,000 per rank all the way to 140 which makes things pretty straightforward. Have been going up about 1 rank every week and a half lately.

lolz

yeah, because if you've ONLY got to rank 119 and 700 hours of your life, that makes you soooo much cooler than a 140 / 1000 hour jobbie !

face it - we all nerd big time on this

I am rank 126 and 825 hours of pure SEX

normilet is 130 in only 462 hours, so he is 4 ranks cooler and 363 hours less saddo than me nolanotr is 102 & 365 hourstae is 84 and 244 hoursfeckW is 124 & 590 hours

I seem to rank up slowly then, my intial slow recon days & I always sell my XP accerlerators plus I've spent a lot of time on shit like pigeons and the feckin 15 kills on the shotgun in one round thing that I found hard, all in my quest to unlocking as much as possible

I'm now in a long distance relationship, so I'll be ranking up like a mofo from this evening.

It's not the guys who are rank 140 that make me , but the guys who have 50-100 service stars with one weapon.

yeahI sucked at a lot of weapons like shotguns and autospaztico, but sticking with it to get a certain unlock does kind of force you to get better at it - by the end I could turn a corner, use a autospaztico clip in one go, and get a quadruple kill all in about 0.6 seconds - got more from that than yet another 30 killstreak in a mortar tank or yet another behemoth PTFO kill

Definitely. I do like that there are incentives to use the full range of weapons. One I really noticed was the slug shotgun one. Needed 50 kills for an unlock. I hate slug guns, I find that they don't match any other gun for play style; but once I'd used it for a bit I started getting a feel for the pacing and firing etc.Never used it since, TBF, but I wouldn't have used it all but for the unlock requirements.

Need tae to get into a double digit ranking if we want to have a respectable squad ha.

Yesterday proved my point about how to get to rank 140 I think. Random double XP event, you threw a squad XP boost on, and I had some earlier in the day. Went up most of an entire rank in a few hours. So pretty sure I'll hit 131 this evening. Hopefully 132 by this day next week.

Is Monday a bank holiday in Engerland?

Excellent, and it was good getting best squad there at the end too I must say. Forgive the ignorance, but who was the other PR player? Saw you and Yeeb and a randomer, couldn't figure out who the other person was.

We got best squad in the next round where we got completely pumped, too.

Foolishfire is a former poster, apparently. Gap toothed gypsy. Think I remember his name from years back, don't think he's posted in ages.

yeah, gyppo was a former poster, perma banned for racism, although he wanted to go out in a blaze of glory as he thought a lot of people on here were, and I quote, 'lefty twats or people up their own arse'

he's quite a handy Bf1 player, and wasn't a bad player too on the pitch (he was a fellow Eton Manor 2's & 3's player with me, quite fast for a slightly tubby Essex thug)

haha I gave you a cheeky wee Tbag as you were hiding by the train on Sinai - you were doing v well seeing as you joined late. how come you didn't join our party with all the cool kids ?

It was slightly laggy for me (as has been pretty much every game last 2 weeks, think my internet connection is shite) plus was going for assault grenade & TNT kills, horrible map for that. was quite pleased I got top five in fact, as counts toward a dogtag unlock.

Sorry (not sorry) for stealing your last bomb arming Yeeb. I'd have let you have it if I'd have known.

yeah, if only there was some way we could communicate with each other during a game, say via the medium of Chat. hint fockin hint

got it the next level, Gyppo kindly ran straight at me & didn't kill me, think ye killed me once with an LMG. I needed bomb plant unlocks, not bomb diffuse, so had to go on the attack to start with - flipped sides once I had got it.

When you were on the opposing team last night, I tried to kill you numerous times only for you to start teleporting here and there with the lag. Very annoying.

teleporting, I me just being good & elusive ?

think you only got me when I was planting a bomb and therefore stationary

Only tip I have is start as assault , play operations, and try to follow somebody good or high ranked to see what they do. Game has fairly steep learning curve and as it’s been out a while, some real ninjas out there, even amongst the spazzos who play on Xbox

Leave scout and vehicles alone at first until you have a feel for the game and know the maps
